Despite recent work to characterize gene expression changes associated with larval development in oysters, the mechanism by which shell is first formed still largely unknown. In Crassostrea gigas, this forms within 24 h post fertilization, and it has been demonstrated that water chemistry can cause delays formation, deformations higher mortality rates. study, we use delay formation exposure CO2-acidified seawater identify genes correlated initial deposition.By fitting linear models data...

Genetic by environment (GxE) interactions were estimated for harvest traits of Pacific oysters Crassostrea gigas based on data collected over a period 20 y from farm trials conducted the Molluscan Broodstock Program, family-based selective breeding program aimed at improving yields West Coast, USA. environmental oyster families planted subtidal and intertidal sites, as well coastal Puget Sound (PS) sites in Northwest. Covariance components obtained using multiple-trait mixed model, treating...
Introduction Morphological injuries are well-established Operational Welfare Indicators (OWIs) for farmed animals including fish. They often scored manually by human observers and this process can be laborious prone to subjectivity error. In study we evaluated the use of a hyperspectral imaging system quantify presence severity external haemorrhaging in Atlantic salmon focusing on dorsal fins as proof concept OWI. Methods Two inexperienced audited fin 234 post-smolt following standardized...
The influence of different lipid sources and n3:n6 ratios on reproductive performance female channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus was evaluated. A commercial catfish feed top coated with 2% oil offered to brood stock females fish during 70–85 days before spawning season. Four dietary treatments were formulated using the following coating ratios: diet 1, soybean 9.5 g kg−1 linseed 10.5 kg−1; 2, 17.5 2.5 3, 20.0 oil, 4, 10.0 menhaden supplemented 5.0 arachidonic acid (ARA), docosahexaenoic...
Balancing selection is one of the mechanisms which has been proposed to explain maintenance genetic diversity in species across generations. For with large populations and complex life histories, however, heterogeneous pressures may create a scenario net effects are balanced developmental stages. With replicated cultures pooled sequencing approach, we show that genotype-dependent mortality larvae Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) largely temporally dynamic inconsistently favour single...
The adaptive capacity of marine calcifiers to ocean acidification (OA) is a topic great interest evolutionary biologists and ecologists. Previous studies have provided evidence suggest that larval resilience high
Hybrid catfish (channel Ictalurus punctatus × blue furcatus) display characteristics that are favourable to aquaculture production. Low hatch percentages a principal reason this hybrid is not used widely in the industry. This study was conducted determine whether additional food source rich lipids may lead higher quality egg A 10-week feed trial ponds Auburn, AL. total of 219 female Kansas Select channel were stocked into nine ponds, 0.04 ha size. Three dietary treatments randomly allocated...
